Off-Road Events

Raptor Offroad Community

As the name suggests, Raptor Offroad Community (or ROC) is an off-road club based on the idea of creating an all-inclusive community for desert off-road enthusiasts. Our club hosts prerunner-style desert events. We welcomes all off-road vehicles, from Ford Raptors to Toyota Tacomas. Our off-road events range from 2 to 5 day excursions in the American West, with a focus on covering awesome desert terrain and seeing some rare off-the-beaten-track sights, such as abandoned mines, ghost towns, geologic desert formations, and more. Come join us for an adventure in the dirt and experience the fun for yourself.
